This volume provides a comprehensive understanding of the enigmatic
identity of the glycome, a complex but important area of research
that has been largely ignored due to its complexity. The authors
thoroughly deal with almost all aspects of the glycome, i.e.,
elucidation of the glycan identity enigma and its role in
regulation of the cellular process, and in disease etiology. The
book bridges the knowledge gap in understanding the glycome, from
being a cell signature to its applications in disease etiology. In
addition, it details many of the major insights regarding the
possible role of the glycome in various diseases as a therapeutic
marker. The book systematically covers the major aspects of the
glycome, including the significance of substituting the diverse
monosaccharide units to glycoproteins, the role of glycans in
disease pathologies, and the challenges and advances in
glycobiology. The authors stress the significance and huge encoding
power of carbohydrates as well as provide helpful insights in
framing the bigger picture. The Glycome: Understanding the
Diversity and Complexity of Glycobiology details state-of-the-art
developments and emerging challenges of glycome biology, which are
going to be key areas of future research, not only in the
glycobiology field but also in pharmaceutics.

This book: (i) introduces fundamental and applied bioinformatics
research in the field of plant life sciences; (ii) enlightens the
potential users towards the recent advances in the development and
application of novel computational methods available for the
analysis and integration of plant -omics data; (iii) highlights
relevant databases, softwares, tools and web resources developed
till date to make ease of access for researchers working to
decipher plant responses towards stresses; and (iv) presents a
critical cross-talks on the available high-throughput data in plant
research. Therefore, in addition to being a reference for the
professional researchers, it is also of great interest to students
and their professors. Considering immense significance of plants
for all lives on Earth, the major focus of research in plant
biology has been to: (a) select plants that best fit the purposes
of human, (b) develop crop plants superior in quality, quantity and
farming practices when compared to natural (wild) plants, and (c)
explore strategies to help plants to adapt biotic and
abiotic/environmental stress factors. Accordingly the development
of novel techniques and their applications have increased
significantly in recent years. In particular, large amount of
biological data have emerged from multi-omics approaches aimed at
addressing numerous aspects of the plant systems under biotic or
abiotic stresses. However, even though the field is evolving at a
rapid pace, information on the cross-talks and/or critical
digestion of research outcomes in the context of plant
bioinformatics is scarce. "Plant Bioinformatics: Decoding the
Phyta" is aimed to bridge this gap.
